@leva_levchenko @raykhrud Единственное бельгийское пиво, кстати, которого сами бельгийцы избегают. Его варится огромное количество, и практически всё до последней капли идёт на экспорт.

@azaidman This could be your chance to start!

Email from prospective PhD student. I’ve been strongly recommended to apply for a position in your research group as I want to work on Smart Grids… Only, I don’t work in Smart Grids… 🤦‍♂️

I figured it out by year 3, but it didn't work so I had to rewrite it with a different title in year 5...

Is it BabyCobol-proof? Join the Strumenta Community for the Virtual Meetup with @grammarware tomorrow the 15th of April at 6 PM!

Attending @ioctaptceb's guest lecture at @UiB on TC39, JavaScript and related topics. One of the nice sides of everyone working remotely!

@turbojedi Двадцать лет назад в моде были ориджины и таглайны.

Ещё, раз речь зашла: двадцать лет не могу себя заставить использовать подписи в электронной переписке, поскольку это уже и двадцать лет назад выглядело страшным атавизмом.

@aserebrenik @azaidman More competition for @RaincodeLegacy who has been running COBOL in the cloud and/or on Linux for a loooong time ;)

@azaidman @grammarware will adore it

Legacy fans rejoice! IBM is bringing a COBOL compiler and runtime to Linux x86. COBOL in the cloud anyone? 😅 www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/Sho…

@CoolSWEng @MrHritik I've switched to JetBrains Mono last year, for all IDEs as well as for slides, and quite content with the outcome. Not sure it would've solved this particular case, though...

@MrHritik I'm open to suggestions. I've been using Lucida Console for many years, but I accept there may be better alternatives.

This almost drove me crazy. Can you identify the syntax error on line 146?

@YosufHaydary @Grady_Booch @MagielBruntink @jurgenvinju @Felienne @avandeursen @alexellisuk @venkat_s @jelleprins @DavyLandman @graemerocher @OfranBadakhshan @urlichsanais I didn't do anything! :)

Honored to be surrounded by great people like @Grady_Booch @MagielBruntink @jurgenvinju @Felienne @avandeursen @alexellisuk @venkat_s @jelleprins @DavyLandman @graemerocher @grammarware @OfranBadakhshan @urlichsanais and all of you great people 🙏♥️

@HeptaSean @richpaige Yes, I've been advocating Python as the 1st language too since at least 2002! But then again, my first language was strongly typed (Pascal), so everything about me is wrong. And C also gets formatted structurally anyway, only it's harder to parse (and C++ is almost impossible).

Greg Michaelson's talk at #prog21 started with interesting contemplations of where programming paradigms came from and how to teach them, and quickly deteriorated to the author bashing Python and Haskell as being "horrible" and "unrealistic". Puzzling.

@richpaige It started with "teach concepts, not language" and "choose language close to your heart" (which I can get behind). The author seemed to be a firm believer that C and Asm are the only languages representative of real life and thus the only choices to teach computational thinking.

@grammarware Is there discussion of what is realistic? Obviously COBOL, but what else?

@cmeik What kind of evil are you brewing now?!

@AlexAbreuDev @programmingconf @RaincodeLabs @ProWebWorkshop We're working on it. Realistically it will be around next week, this week #prog21 orgs have a lot of more urgent stuff to worry about.

@programmingconf @RaincodeLabs @ProWebWorkshop When will the recorded talks be online (I am registered but missed some that I want to listen to) ?

‹Programming› 2021 has started! 🎉 #prog21 The program for today: - Salon Littéraire 2021 - @RaincodeLabs Compiler Coding Dojo 2021 (CoCoDo) - @ProWebWorkshop 2021 ➡️ #session-timeline" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">2021.programming-conference.org/program/progra…

To be fair to the reviewer, this does not guarantee that one understands the work one published before :)

@kim_mens @llvmorg If you want a loop, enjoy this one ten lines below

@grammarware @llvmorg And that in a loop that is executed 1000 times?

#CoCoDo/#prog21 speaker: "@llvmorg has an optimiser phase because we are humans and we do not write well-optimised code!" My inner voice: "writing non-optimised code? speak for yourself!" My students' code in the background:

@samthecoder @programmingconf I'm literally the only person in the world that could be interested in sushi made of cheese, meat and tomatoes :)

@grammarware @programmingconf Is this some kind of sushi

Today is the start of @programmingconf, and even more importantly, the day of #CoCoDo! I didn't travel anywhere and didn't get to meet anyone in person, but at least I received a conference-style breakfast:

Right now live at #CoCoDo: @EelcoVisser demoing @Spoofax. Hurry up and join through @programmingconf's Discord and Zoom!
